just some more.  From the storage.  Chairs.   I'd left so many behind,   but these two…the black one was Old Cowboy's mother's salvaged chair.  the bottom,  shored up with bailing wire  and then this other…it was a rocking chair but one of the rockers was broken so i took them off.  It's low now.  Emrie sized.  It's old.  Won't hold up in Winter Rain.

then a large garbage or leaf bag of sheets,  towels.  But on  the top,  the denim futon cover.  My attempt at squares and matching seams.   Hand stitched.  selvages folded back and stitched down. like Jude taught.  it's big.  there's almost 2 feet over the top of the fence.  

Things are going on in Polvadera New Mex.  Complications.  Difficult things.   I resent the need to go BACK in time,  want so much to live in the present moment,  this Now.  There was a beauty Full pattypan squash today

    BEAUTI FULL ‘keepers’, ‘specially that gorgeous futon cover, but DAMN the complications (what the —k????). May a solution descend and solve.
    Meanwhile…
    I got a big bag of yellow squash for $2 at the farm market and a bunch more of garlic scapes. Food pleasure is often medicine.

    complications, seems always something, can’t even find the words for the ones on this side.

    I know that surrounded by your long loved packed away treasures bring you comfort. The blues in that quilt you made is comforting just to look at. I’m sorry for the trouble .. an unwelcome blast from the past. Big hugs!

    Take comfort in the beautiful things you have kept and made over the years, and the big Joy that even the most old and worn can evoke. Even if it is just a picture. Life is a Trip.
